Spain owns the world!
This is The Sports Reset for Monday, July 20.
In the World Cup final, Spain beat Argentina 1 to 0 in extra time at MetLife Stadium to win the title. Ferran Torres delivered the deciding goal in the 106th minute off Nico Williams’ setup, and Argentina never put a shot on goal across 120 minutes. In golf, Ryan Fox won The Open at 10 under, one shot ahead of Cameron Young, after birdieing the 72nd hole for his first major. Stefano Mazzoli also finished off the Corales Puntacana Championship at 20 under. In Formula 1, Kimi Antonelli won the Belgian Grand Prix ahead of Charles Leclerc and Max Verstappen, passing Leclerc late and stretching his title lead. In NASCAR, Joey Logano held off Denny Hamlin at North Wilkesboro for his first Cup win of the season. On the ATP courts, Andrey Rublev beat Luciano Darderi in straight sets at the Nordea Open, and Stefanos Tsitsipas topped Raphael Collignon in three sets in Gstaad.
Looking ahead, the MLB schedule has a full Monday reset, led by the Los Angeles Dodgers visiting the Philadelphia Phillies, the Pittsburgh Pirates at the New York Yankees, and the San Diego Padres at the Atlanta Braves after San Diego’s 19 to 2 win on Sunday. The Baltimore Orioles and Boston Red Sox also pick it back up at Fenway Park, while the New York Mets head to Milwaukee to face the Brewers. In the WNBA, the New York Liberty visit the Dallas Wings in the makeup game from last Thursday, with Paige Bueckers and Sabrina Ionescu back in the same matchup and Dallas already up 2 to 0 in the season series. The Minnesota Lynx at the Seattle Storm is the late national window, and the Washington Mystics visit the Golden State Valkyries. In tennis, Mayar Sherif and Paula Badosa are in the WTA Iasi final. Later this week, the WNBA All-Star Game lands Saturday in Chicago, and Formula 1 moves on to Hungary on Sunday.
